Posted August 14, 201212 yr comment_398617 Will someone tell me if this worked? For the first time I've attempted to post a video on Youtube of a race earlier this year showing in car of the Z in action.

August 14, 201212 yr comment_398629 Heck yeah it worked! Nice run man... loved watching that 40 year old Z hang in there with that S2000 and that 370... and then pass that Honda through a little late breaking magic in turn 1.

August 15, 201212 yr Author comment_398651 That car on the point is actually a 370Z that has really been dialed in now and is running in the SCCA STO(Street Touring Over) class which includes cars like Vipers and Vettes. He has since added a wing and huge brakes and has gotten quite fast. He has more power, more brakes, and runs about three secs. a lap faster than I can. We do OK, though, with our 200 HP.BTW, I usually go like stink at the beginning of the race but the brakes go away as they are single disks/drums per the Improved Touring rules. All my competition knows it and just waits to pounce. This year, however, we've taken the first ten races in a row and have clinched the championship without even entering the last four races. We will take in Laguna at years end, just for grins. The plan is to retire the car from SCCA IT competition and fully convert to vintage, maybe with disk brakes and a real race engine. We'll see, that is if the wife vetoes the GT40 again.Coop Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/44105-240z-first-lap-of-race-at-laguna-seca/#findComment-398651 Share on other sites More sharing options...
